While wandering here and there the fox met donkey.The donkey looked foolish nervous and hungry. the fox asked him, hello! you seem to be new to this forest where do you actual come from? I come from the near town said the donkey. my master the dhobi makes me work all day, but doesn't feed me properly so I will left my home to find a better place to live in and eat properly. I see said the fox don't worry I am a senior minister in this forest kingdom. come with me to the king place our king need the bodyguard who has experience of town life. you will live in a palace and eat a lot of green grass growing around it. the donkey was very happy to listen to all this from the Minister fox of the forest Kingdom. he proceeded with him the royal palace. seen the donkey before him the king lion became highly impatient and pounced upon him immediately. but on account of constant hunger the king lion had gone weak. he could not overpower the donkey freed himself and run for his life. your majesty said the fox to king lion you should not have acted in such haste .you have scared your prey. I am sorry said lion. try to bring him here once again. the hungry fox went again to the donkey and said to him what a funny fellow you are. what did you run away like that? why should not asked the donkey. my dear said the fox you are being tested for your alertness as a royal bodyguard of a king. thank God, you showed a quick reflex, otherwise, you would have been rejected for this job.
